From a Counselor's Point of View pt.4

This is the one the only Mr Jacktastic = ) and still no name Ruthie. Its our last night here at Arts X Press and for me is my last night as a counselor. I will be too old next year. This week was a blast for me i really enjoyed the time i got to know your kids. Today we didnt take a field trip any where but it was still really busy getting ready to perform for all of you and talent show and a music and dance workshop. Im suprised the kids still have energy. On a more personal note as ive already said this is my last year as a counselor and all your kids helped make it one of the most memorable summers. Im so sad to say good bye to them all tomorrow but i know you all miss them. We counselors have seen all your kids grow so much over the past few days and im really proud to say that were not sending home the same kids were sending home more talented artists. Thank you for taking the time to read my blogs is been a blast see you all tomorrow.

We Got the Beat the Much Love Beat and it goes ...........
